Maryland Basketball: Terps hit the road against young Iowa team

The Maryland basketball team puts their three-game winning streak on the line on Thursday.

After coming back to top Illinois this past weekend, the Terrapins travel to Iowa to face a young Hawkeye squad.

Maryland definitely got more of a fight this time around against the Fighting Illini. Illinois led by as many as 11 points in the first half and held a five-point advantage after the first 20 minutes.

The Terps were able to chip away at the Illini lead throughout the second half thanks in large part to Anthony Cowan. Cowan scored a career and game-high 19 points and nailed five crucial free throws in the final minute to seal the 62-56 win.
